thanks everyone! I am realy happy with this one.
I just have my thoughts with the t-shirts, I have reworked mostly all of the t's to a smaller image, but I think I'm gonna leave this one as he is now...what do you guys think?

I'd like to see how your brush strokes flow and disappear on tees rather than a frame around it. (you can save as png without bg) And it will make a different dimension effect as if the figure is coming out of the fabric.

yes that's what I want exactly! but I don't know how to do this? I don't like frames or sharp cutting edges, I would like as it was fading out. now it's saved as a png, because of the black t's, but I don't know what you mean with bg?

thanks catspaws! and oh bg is background, yes well this is transparant because of the black t's (I did follow the instructions of what S6 said we have to do for black and coloured t's). but my knowledge of photoshop is limited... I have to look it up on forums orso how I can manage this to let fading out my image. or if someone can help me here, but maybe it's difficult to explain it in a simple way :-)

You can find many tutorials for editing your images on photoshop. You can basically use both pen tool or eraser. Pen tool is mostly for clear forms. What you can easily use for this effect is "Eraser Tool". You can edit your brush size and hardness as your wish. So that you can delete sharp ends of your images and with some more detail, it will look gorgeous. Here's some tuts for basics of pen tool and eraser tool. Hope that will be useful. If you have any questions, I'd like to help ;)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUk7d8DqA2U (for pen tool)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TKzyvRSMwU (for eraser tool)

when I see paintings with this intensity... I feel the need to take my oil colours and start to paint... (I haven´t painted in 18 years, but I start to feel something). I like your work with the shadows. This work is close to barroque masters... and I like this way. Congrats well done!!

thanks Rachel, and many thanks to Süyümbike for the help! but I have to say that it was not my option to take the figure out of the background as shown in that link you gave me. No, because I like the colors of the bg and also I can't do this because of the dots and things in my painting in this bg, near to his head, I would lose to much, so I wanted it to fade away, you know and I decided to keep on doing my circles like I did with my other t's, but now I find the tric to fade with the "doezelaar" (it's in dutch here), so I am very happy with the result!! he's glowing now, and that's just the way an angel should act :-)

Hi Óscar, thanks for the congrats!! it was very difficult for me to paint the shadows in his face, I never knew what colors I must use... because the barroque masters were keeping the shadows transparantly, and that's difficult to hold yourself in, and stay away from opaque paint...it's the first I succeed a bit in this... but hey you should take your oils and brushes and start again!! why not? what's holding you back? just do it!

Actually I didn't mean separating the complete figure from background. It was just to see how the tools can be used. It looks much more natural when you show some texture and brush strokes. Otherwise it looks like a template with oil paintings. I think it looks better now. Keep glowing ;)

sometimes the problem is the time... the time introduces darkness, and that special touch on shadows... but this is another problem. Your solution works fine in your paintings. I have my old material in the garage waiting for me, but I need more time and training...
